About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To live wholly and deliberately!

ABOUT ME

I like to cultivate an open, playful mind. I love hearing peoples stories and telling a few of my own. I like to live by all of the senses, including intuition - which I'm working to cultivate. I will fiercely defend both nature and humanity - I'm in love with both, even if they aren't always good to you. I'm a science junkie at heart, and I'm currently interested in soil ecology and ecological agriculture and social networks. Ask me about earthworms, and I'll tell you more than you want to know. One day I had the notion that I will help save the world, and now I'm compelled to follow through with it.

PHILOSOPHY

"Like a Planet"
To survive
Our minds must taste
redwood and agate,
octopi, bat, and in
the bat's mouth
insect. It's hard
to think like a planet.
We've got to try.
-James Bertolino

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had amazing couchsurfing experiences Paris and Vienna. Now that I'm settled I want to pay it forward.

Interests

Playing music and dancing, growing and decomposing, geeking out on microbes, contemplating life's unknowable secrets, crazy art projects, meaningful conversations, networks of all kinds.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was born once, into a vast, beautiful world. I've reveled in it ever since.

Teach, Learn, Share

Right now I'm getting into the blues harp and trying to retro-fit my classical skills in viola to a more improvised sytle. I would love to jam and learn/share a few tips!
